Explosion Overhaul

Minecraft 版本： 1.21.1

平台： neoforge

标签： game-mechanics

Cinematic, physics-enhanced explosions that feel powerful and dynamic.

Explosion Overhaul re-imagines Minecraft's vanilla explosion system with immersive visual and audio feedback — perfect for adventure, combat, realism-focused or even tech modpacks.

✨ Features

• Works with every explosion: All vanilla and most modded explosives (such as creepers, TNT, crystals and fireballs) are all supported!

• Physics Based Debris:
  Explosions launch nearby blocks into the air as falling block entities with randomized speed, arc, and rotation. Enhances destructive capabilities of explosions.

• Screen Shake:
  Players near an explosion experience configurable camera shake based on blast power and distance.

• Ear-Ringing Effect:
  An ambient ringing sound plays when standing close to large explosions, enhancing the feeling of impact. Defaults to off, can cause discomfort especially at high volumes.

• Every Feature is Configurable:
  Customize behavior via config/explosion-overhaul.json, including:

  • Debris count, velocity ranges, and spawn chance
  • Shake strength, radius, and duration
  • Sound toggle
  • Debug logging

🔧 Compatibility

• ✅ Minecraft 1.21.1
• ✅ Fabric & Neoforge (via Architectury)
• ✅ Works with most mods unless they fully override explosion logic

Recommended Mods

• Vectorientation Reforged: An in-house rewrite of Vectorientation to make launched rotate in the direction they are moving
• Vectorientation: Makes falling blocks rotate in the direction they are moving
• Supplementaries: Throwable bombs work well with the enhanced explosions
